CLIPPER. NATION. The @LAClippers Media Day portraits 📸🧵

Klawin’ thru Day 1 🖐🏾

Running it back in Los Angeles 🔥 @CP3 x @LAClippers

ready for day 2️⃣ of camp 📍 Kaiser Permanente Training Center

The only *NBA* players to ever have at least 35 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals, 4 blocks in the same game: - Kareem - Dr. J (only one to do it in playoffs) - Clyde the Glide (2x) - Patrick Ewing - Hakeem (2x) - D Wade - Anthony Davis - James Harden (last to do it, 2019)

Tyronn Lue has made it a recurring point to say how much he wants to reduce James Harden's workload and responsibility That could mean: - fewer games - fewer minutes - fewer touches - fewer shots/points "The last few weeks of the season, he got worn down. That's our fault."

Asked Tyronn Lue about dealing with "distractions" -- more specifically, his star player and the organization being a daily headline for non-basketball reasons "I think our guys are focused. It's an unfortunate situation right now… things like that don't seem to bother (Kawhi)"

Tyronn Lue on Clippers practice participation for Bradley Beal and Bogdan Bogdanovic: “They didn't participate in the 5-on-5. I think Bogi did some of the half-court stuff, but not the full court staff. We're just taking it day by day, making sure they're comfortable, they're healthy, but they feel pretty good. We just want to be smart about it.”

RISE & SHINE! IT’S TRAINING CAMP TIME! 📍 Kaiser Permanente Training Center

Big milestone for the Clippers' big man! @ivicazubac gearing up for Year 🔟

Asked Bradley Beal how hard it was to leave the Suns and about his decision to join the Clippers: “It wasn't easy at all. It wasn't an easy decision at all because many teams made that push, their run, and their pitch. It came down to the wire about where I was wanted to go and what situation I wanted to be a part of. The [LA Clippers] in particular stuck out a lot.”

Asked John Collins about being Kawhi Leonard's teammate after Kawhi has asked for a bigger starting-caliber forward to play with for years. JC mentioned how "we all know Kawhi, not too long-winded conversations..." 😆 But that he is excited to learn from Kawhi and to win

Asked Bradley Beal about fellow Missouri native Tyronn Lue Beal says T Lue told him "every time you played the Clippers the last couple of years, you kicked my ass. So I need that same type of energy over here."

Here's James Harden on Bradley Beal after I asked him why he feels like he can help Beal bounce back in LA after Beal's two seasons in Phoenix

Kawhi says he did not receive ANY money from the fake tree company 😂😂

Look who it is 👀🎙️👋 @TeamLou23

Kawhi Leonard's full exchange with @ramonashelburne regarding the Clippers/Aspiration investigation. "I understand the full contract and the services I had to do. I don't deal with conspiracies or the clickbait analyst or journalism that's going on." Kawhi adds, "I don't think it's accurate," that no services were performed and that he didn't receive the money that he was owed in the contract.

Kawhi Leonard on staying focused amid the NBA’s investigation: “It’s easy. For us, it’s nothing to hide. It’s no wrongdoing there. So we’re just gonna keep going as any other season… I’ve been through times like this before. Just going through the year last year, going through the fire. Soon as I came back, that first game, my community caught on fire. I don’t think it’s gonna be harder than that.”

Kawhi Leonard echoed the Clippers comments, saying there was no wrongdoing done: “The NBA is going to do their job. None of us did no wrongdoing. That's it. We invite the investigations. It's not going to be a distraction for me or my team.”
